Re: Algaecide issues
Update: TA is 110ppm. CH is 370.
ETA: my Just did the CYA test again. It's still below 30. (We followed the directions to add 30 ppm to our pool last Monday, but then emptied the skimmer basket the next day, so I think we lost some of it.) We added another dose to add 20ppm (with the goal of replacing what we probably lost when we emptied the basket) on Tuesday but maybe we didn't add enough because today is Saturday and it is still low.
I am so new to this "caring for my own pool" thing and am terrified that we will end up with algae again before our party. Right now though the water is still crystal.
Is there anything I need to do to ensure it stays that way? I have been checking the FC twice a day.
